Session type cookies are temporary cookies that are stored in the browser's memory and are deleted when the browser is closed. These cookies are commonly used to store session identifiers and other session-related data, which is used to maintain user sessions on a website.

To allow the use of session type cookies, you will need to modify the server-side code of your website or web application to set the appropriate cookie headers in the HTTP response.

In most web frameworks, this can be achieved by adding the HttpOnly and Secure flags to the session cookie. The HttpOnly flag prevents the cookie from being accessed by client-side scripts, which helps prevent cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks. The Secure flag ensures that the cookie is only transmitted over HTTPS, which helps protect the cookie from being intercepted by attackers.
